Development Boards
Prototype electronics and build simple automation systems with the configurable inputs and outputs on these boards. Monitor both digital and analog devices, including proximity and temperature sensors, and control basic outputs, such as changing the speed of a servomotor or turning LEDs on and off. Their open-source software makes programming and troubleshooting convenient. Choose a board whose operating voltage can support the other devices you’re connecting to.
Boards with headers are good for making quick connections. Plug them in directly to breadboards, or connect them using jumper wire.
Boards without headers require making your own soldered connections. Use them for permanent or long-term installations.
Sets include the hardware and components needed to start building simple automation systems. Uno starter kits include an instructional project book, making them good for learning the basics of coding and electronics. Choose Nano IoT bundles for Internet of Things projects, such as linking your system of sensors to the cloud and communicating across networks.

Single-Board Computers
Combine the functionality of a PC with the flexibility of a development board’s digital inputs and outputs. These computers are faster than development boards and also have more memory, so they’re able to run multiple applications simultaneously. Use them to prototype or program complex automation jobs, such as controlling the movements of a robot arm or livestreaming video from a remote facility. About the size of a credit card, they easily mount inside control cabinets.
These computers run on a Linux-based operating system. To program, download an operating system onto a micro SD card (not included) and then transfer it to the single-board computer.
Use sets to start prototyping automation systems. 5-piece sets come with the basic hardware needed to get the computer up and running. Use them to run local and web-based applications for your system. 94-, 96-, and 97-piece sets include all of the hardware in the 5-piece sets, as well as some electrical components. Use the components to prototype your physical system, which might incorporate temperature and pressure sensors (not included) using the Qwiic adapter, push button controls, and LED indicators.
Active coolers have an aluminum heatsink with a temperature-controlled fan to keep your Raspberry Pi 5 running cool.
Real-time clock batteries are rechargeable and connect to your Raspberry Pi 5 to power the board’s real-time clock when disconnected from the main power supply.

Mini Development Boards
Often used for rapid prototyping of electronic systems, these boards have various inputs and outputs to monitor sensors and control actuators. They’re smaller than other development boards, so they save space in your setup—while still having the same basic functions. Solder components directly to these boards for permanent or long-term installations. Attach headers for quick connections as you prototype. The operating voltage should support the other devices you’re configuring and connecting them to.
To program, attach a header to the board and connect the programming module (each sold separately). Connect the module to your computer using a USB cord (sold separately) and transfer your code. Once the board has been programmed, the module can be removed.
